Match the numbers in Figure with the description of what is happening as the sensory neurons, interneurons, and motor neurons communicate with one another. Start with number 1. ____ 1 Graded potential starts in a sensory receptor in the skin. ____ A t a second synapse, a graded potential followed by an action potential occurs in a secondary interneuron, which reaches the cerebral cortex. The graded potential triggers an action potential in a sensory neuron. ____ The lower motor neuron forms a neuromuscular synapse with the hand muscles, which causes the muscles to contract as he writes the letter. ____ In another synapse, the neurotransmitter creates a graded potential, which triggers an action potential in the lower motor neuron. ____ A primary interneuron forms an action potential and crosses to the opposite side of the brain. ____ A stimulus from the brain causes a graded potential and then an action potential to form in an upper motor neuron (which crosses back to the original side…

View the University of Michigan WebScope (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/nervefiber) to see an electron micrograph of a cross-section of a myelinated nerve fiber. The axon contains microtubules and neurofilaments that are bounded by a plasma membrane known as the axolemma. Outside the plasma membrane of the axon is the myelin sheath, which is composed of the tightly wrapped plasma membrane of a Schwann cell. What aspects of the cells in this image react with the stain to make them a deep, dark, black color, such as the multiple layers that are the myelin sheath?
You are observing in a Physical Therapy clinic and a patient presents with back pain. The images suggest that they have a disc herniation at the disk between L3 and L4. The PT you are working with believes that the disk is putting pressure on the spinal nerve that contains the afferent and efferent neurons that control the patellar tendon reflex. Using the appropriate anatomy and physiology, describe the afferent and efferent portions of this stretch reflex pathway, including a description of the receptor and what it responds to. If you performed a patellar tendon reflex, describe whether you would expect to see an enhanced or diminished response and explain why.
